Jenkins provides full access to anonymous visitors

Rule Details

Cortex AppSec Rule ID	APPSEC_CICD_17
Category	IAM
Severity	CRITICAL

Impact

Jenkins is configured to allow full access to anonymous visitors. Any visitor with network access to the system is granted with full administrative permissions, providing abilities as accessing secrets, creating, modifying and deleting pipelines, and managing user accounts. This permission model puts the system at risk, as any attacker that achieves access to the system automatically controls every part of it.

Recommended Solution - Buildtime

Implement a secure authentication mechanism which provides security controls that meet the industry best practices, such as integrating with the organization’s SSO solution. For more on Authentication refer to https://cheatsheetseries.owasp.org/cheatsheets/Authentication_Cheat_Sheet.html.
